THE CODE GUIDE CHALLENGE

It's funny how clarifying details sounds boring until you realise that the alternative is to be ruled only by average numbers and no greater context

Ironically I learnt this professionally 30 years ago when I started exploring early database software to try to build applications that were halfway between market and society research. I worked for one company for 10 years before it got taken over by Robert Maxwell - he who later jumped ship as his corporation of cards collapsed - that connected millions hours of people's biews of social needs linking 50 countries and hundreds of marketplaces.

I say ironically because I have only just woken up to realise that I have not seen an open souce coding guide to all the crisis destials of human sustainability we world citizens debate and prioritise for grassrooots up change.

I know the rest of this looks longish. But here's a very short question - what's the most vital code that I have forgotten which you would wnat to add so that the world can see how many beings are suffering from the crisis you most serve or seek to help change 

CODING GUIDE TO CHANGES HUMANS NEED

I haven't seen a worldwide version of this that world citizen networks can connect in using. If you think there is one that is open for people to collaborate around and suitably diverse please tell me where it is bookmarked. I do not want to reinvent the wheel. Otherwise, why don't we develop a version here and then debate with other world citizen communities?

What codes need to be added to this framework, or what would you suggest is edited. If you have a particular world change concern we particularly need you to come and state it and edit this guide so that it links with how you describe the change needed wherever you network -mail any views you have on this to info@guidemakers.net

100 War and Personal Safety Issues

200 Climate & Scarcity Issues

300 Issues value each child and beings rights integrating basic communal flows such as health, rights to education and future participation

400 Poverty and Unfair system issues

500 Open Society & Lifelong Learning: How true to future change and connecting gravity of social/cultural purposes is what we action*learn

600 How transparent and fearless is media and mediation on vital risks

700 Hi-trust Hippocratic Oaths: How sustainable are the metrics and rules of professional advisers and top-down public officers

800 Other

I realise that few codes are separate. But the idea is we could profile any individual being to see what risks of degradation they are challenged by at a micro level; then also map how codes cluster and emerge from group contexts, and so on up the scale of local to interlocal to global. I believe that one type of context factor is worth pre-coding because of ample evidence from catalogues of social and sustainability entrepreneur projects that its context is a primary factor:

W Big Cities in Developed Countries

X Other in Developed Countries

Y Big Cities in Developing Countries

Z Rural in Developing Countries

For example, Z Rural will often mean there is no infrastructure reaching these places on basis utilities like water and electricity; no products designed rural-specifically by the world's most knowledgeable corporations (one reason why he no loss company has emerged as one of the  most innovative paradigms of micro or social entrepreneurs); no internet infrastructure within reach for representing grassroots questions on most vital needs or advance warning signals of the sort the tsunami coastlines; often not sufficient in-the-community knowledge on very basic health and education needs children require for life to grow. The lack of clean water will often order that girls as soon as they can carry water spend hours a day walking to collect it. And whilst rural communities would naturally be below average waste-makers with carbon and other pollutants, they have their own crises like cutting down more trees than are being grows just to get light or heat.

100 In war zone

101 In a refugee camp that provides no opportunity to develop a family's self-sufficiency

102 Corruption or violence are dominant over any simple code of human rights law

103 Member of an underclass (racial, gender, faith, age...) that the ruling majority are publicly prejudiced against or abusive to

104 Member of an underclass that attracts prejudice or is under-represented in practice even if this isn't explicitly intended by the nation

105 Has lack of access to social or community spaces and becomes part of a non-peaceful extremist group

106 On reaching adolescence gets pulled into a drug-addicted or other communal gang

107 Due to extreme family poverty or other dysfunctional patterns is turned into a sex or work slave

108 Is in an abusive family situation

109 Has no family and is on the streets ...

201 Not enough clean water as a human right to grow/ and live

202 Region-wide contamination or pollution

203 Not enough energy as a human right to grow/live

204 Not enough clean food

205 Consuming in a country or nation that does not openly value sustainability of all future generations

206 Living in a place where knowledge of sustainability's natural ways forward is censored or not being innovated due to lobbying by big vested interests (eg it was as late as 2006 that awareness of addiction to petroleum economics was permitted in many countries media or politics)

207 Failure at all age groups to include sustainability and network systems of system maps in the way that we pro-act how technology's exponentially increasing connections  change what long-term or collaboration investments we  most need - eg most professions have no idea of biomass models in which system boundary conditions are vital and compound externalisation becomes the greatest risk of global meltdowns.

208 Largest organisations are being governed by rules that value the energies machine needs more than the energies that humans need. Sustainability and other vital human needs are excluded from business case metrics compounding systemic consequences...

301 Children are dying due to lack of in-community basic health knowhow or failure by a place's government to adopt Gandhian view of democracy as prioritising in public service those with most vital needs and smallest voices

302 The right to primary education for all is not accessible or not made practical here

303 There is a lack of grassroots up contextual support because of too much standard, male or top-down planning (and too little encouragement of eg social entrepreneurship) whether by government, charities or partnerships

304 Children and youth are not involved in vocational or other education prioritised around local contexts and/or are being digitally divided or disenfranchised from participating in what globalisation our next generations need

305 Trust and other emotional literacies are not being valued sufficiently nor openly mapped by educational systems to collaborate in cross-cultural innovations of the sort that "death of distance future" histories will compound around.

306 Economics of scarcity and big gets bigger is still ruling here compounding ever greater dissonance with value multiplying abundances that true knowledge and deep social networking could liberate

401 Lack of microfinance - lending the poor the first dollar - around here

402 Lack of innovation system design needed to contextually sustain the poorest or those in geographically-disadvantaged places over time. This includes places whose natural resources have been historically "raped or ruined" by outsiders

403 Continuing Global Externalisation onto this society of a compound risk that was not transparently informed or which society's laws had not be fast enough to protect human lives from

404 Lack of consistent scaling and entrepreneurial energy on the contextually most valuable social projects

405 Peoples and youth's next generation are being chained to global debt to corruptions or hostilities that a handful of past leaders -not the whole nation - were responsible for

406 Rich regions agricultural or other trade policies discriminate against sustainable evolution of this places peoples, however entrepreneurially locals apply themselves

407 The mix of global and national economics and market/media practices (eg expensive lobbying) is not free in the sense that Adam Smith's economics (or other Hippocratic oath professions originally intended). The great mistake of the ruling maths and audits is to compound ever greater divides of richer and richer versus poorer and poorer

408 There is a lack of trust and cooperation needed for boundary transparency between systems which is the primary explainer of what compound consequences a highly networked world will spin. Failure to address at every level of global village media and social network meetings the 7 greatest crises for winning or losing irreversible species sustainability during the generation 1984-2024

...

500, 600, 700, 800...

 Places that host too many worldchanging meetings need to share with those that host too few -eg 1 Riga (Nov06 -NATO) 2 ahmedabad (Oct07 - a Gandhi centenary in the ashram that conceived his peace revolution against the British)

Club of City: Apology Strategy of Player 1 - Loves Iraq and Muslim east; is in London and DC; is Scottish in internationalist and entrepreneurial system beliefs of how sustainability of network economics maps; cannot get to Washington state any time soon though recognises its home to the world's greatest givers 

please don't get me wrong I love billanthropists and I am sure theSeattle region means well with its billions for worldwide health end education, but all my favourite charities are gravitated by being in the field; the UK has at least 50 years of studies showing that the further a charity or NGO's HQ gets from the place of most desperate need it uniquely claims to serve, the more waste compounds over time - unless it is audited in mathematicially and systematically the opposite goodill way than tangible accounting measure efiiciency in the pre networking age -a goverance monopoly way of spereading numbgers which also brain conditions wickedly unsustainable pattern rules - eg investing in machines matters and people are costs to cut every quarter

Story 1 Correspondence email with Ms. WA 

Dear Ms Wa: think I can speak for all of my world citizen action Londoner friends who you circulated  to say it's impossible for us (London people or DC people the other place I live and socilaly interconnect out of) to come from where we are to Washington State; what we would love to do is have a virtual ambassador relationship;

A POSSIBLE SOLUTION

so what we would love is to connect one ambassador out of London with whatever is the place you convene the most meetings that connect with people action projects which are entrepreneurially designed to sustain all who connect around them

 MUTUAL APOLOGIES BECAUSE LONDONERS WOULD LOVE TO COLLABORATE WITH WA, WE HAVE SOME SPECIAL COLLABORATION CAFES & COOPERATION GIFTS

by which I mean just as its impractical for us to come to washington state its probably impractical for most of you to come to London even on events and world crisis issues that London is a world collaboration epicentre of; one such is climate: we have Branson making 3 billion dollars of noise, and linked to all of UD most trusted revolutionaries on climate and sustainability of life; we have our government issuing a document saying 1% of GDP now needs to be spent to save 20%; we have queen who broadcasts message on is humanity turning on itself; we have nearly a 100 years of tacit learning’s as a reformed super-empire controller;  a Londoner is the world's most connected person in photosynthesis architectures- one of the only doable ways to distribute abundant clean energy, clean water, clean every input people need to be healthy and as energetic as they ant to be; we also have the Olympics coming up so at least until 2012 we have a growing stage of attention; we will be developing a world travel guide on climate crisis to people and networks around the world we vote for as doing stuff that can sustain the world and is openly replicable; we know our city is a pilot city for the future of all multicultural cities - we both have more different languages spoken in London than any city and we have the English language which makes us a natural place for networks to have branches in; this enables us to easily  study and be aware of world scale citizen networks; we have invested in more pu8blically owned media than any country - eg the BBC as world service as world's largest broadcaster owned by the people; we have 23 years of tracking the top crises of going networked that could end the world, since these were all collated in The Economist a paper originally founded by what Americans call a social entrepreneur because if you go back to the late 1700 origins of free market economics the founder of this measurement theory was a social entrepreneur Adam Smith

100+ Year Learning CURVES in SOCILAL NETWORKS*ENTRPRENEURS

Scots are worth listening to on socila networeks because well over a hundred years ago more Scots weer world networked than living in Scotland. The English as dominat UK power had banished us from our lans: my 4 times great grad father was a communal organser of how to negotiate with Lords who were being instructed by English accountants that sheep were moer valuable to bring up than people.

Even some of us London-Scots and Leeds-Scots have been experimenting with learning networks since the inception of the UK's national development program in computer assisted learning in the early 1970s; so we can grade why a space like omidyar.net is a non-starter for enabling people to develop deep collaboration project whilst being a magnet for a largest audience registration of a goodwilled kind; so sure we need the two way ambassador concept to spread between all locations where omidyar has a large cluster of registered peoples; do you know what a league table of that would look like ; I understand from the conversations I have with you that you have a lot in the North West Coast of USA (Oregon and WA); a lot in Rio de Janeiro; what for example are the other top 8 place clusters; I imagine DC is one but quite frankly the omidyar brand doesn’t do itself any favours; its a huge sponsor of everyone a change maker, a DC linking network but it does not enable any of its 20000 virtual registrants to be aware of what its sponsoring; I get more info on that from outside omidyar.net than within

 in London we already classify Londoners who have twin nation passions, eg were brought up somewhere else; within our inner group who would understand the above way of collaborating I don't think we have a Londoner-WA twin person; we can offered you profiles of various people who could try to be a London to WA ambassador; are you able to reciprocate with profiles of people who could be a WA to London virtual ambassador

Source: The Euphrates River is one of the largest rivers of western Asia, about 1700 miles long. In the Bible it is referred to by several names such as the "great river" or just "the river" and is among the four rivers, which flowed from the Garden of Eden (Gen 2:14). It formed the northeastern limit of the Promised Land (Gen 15:18).

The river, which receives its waters from the mountains of Armenia, flows through a deep and narrow gorge, but as it descends toward Babylon, the Euphrates and the Tigris take different routes, which form the great broad plain of Mesopotamia.

The Euphrates has a very strong current and therefore is navigable only in its lower parts. Along its shores flourished some of the important cities of Mesopotamia. The greatest of which was Babylon. Another, Carchemish, was an important road junction and a river crossing for the caravans coming from the Far East.

Throughout periods of history (even to the Roman period) the Euphrates River formed the boundary between east and west.Some of the great battles of history took place on the Euphrates, one of which was the battle between Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon and Pharaoh Necho II of Egypt in 605 BC. (Jer 46:2).
